The Possum Lodge Word Game
WINSTON ROTHSCHILD: It's time for the Possum Lodge Word Game!

{The camera pulls back to reveal Winston, holding a book, standing behind the card table where Red and Dalton are seated.}

WINSTON ROTHSCHILD: Tonight's winner gets a copy of my brand new book. Now, this is for people who find the For Dummies book a little too complicated.

''{Winston pulls out the book. The cover reads "DRESSING YOURSELF... FOR UTTER MORONS" and shows a drawing of a man in a blue shirt sitting on a man in an orange shirt.}''

WINSTON ROTHSCHILD: "Dressing Yourself for Utter Morons."

{Winston opens the book and shows off a page in it, which reads "#4 SHOES LAST" and features a drawing of a red shoe.}

WINSTON ROTHSCHILD: Number four: shoes last. {closes book} Okay Dalton, cover your ears. {Dalton does so} Red, you have 30 seconds to get Dalton to say this word: {picks up word sign and turns it around} "Early!" "Early!"

RED GREEN: Yeah, all right, Winston.

WINSTON ROTHSCHILD: {puts down word sign} And go!

RED GREEN: Okay Dalton, you set your alarm clock 'cause you want to wake up...

DALTON HUMPHREY: Irritable.

RED GREEN: Okay, if you're not late, you're...

DALTON HUMPHREY: Still alive!

RED GREEN: Oh, no, oh, no. Okay, which bird gets the worm?

DALTON HUMPHREY: The big-name one?

WINSTON ROTHSCHILD: Almost out of time, guys.

RED GREEN: All right, um, um, {snaps fingers} okay. Dalton, what makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise?

DALTON HUMPHREY: Do I look like I know?

RED GREEN: No, no. But– But– But, you know, something to bed, something to rise.

DALTON HUMPHREY: {thinking} Oh...

RED GREEN: No, no, no, no, no. Okay. No, no, no, no, no. You know that when you go to a party and when you get there before you should, you are...

DALTON HUMPHREY: ...alone.

RED GREEN: Why did you figure alone?

DALTON HUMPHREY: Because if I take Anne-Marie, I never get anywhere early.

RED GREEN: There it is! {rings bell rapidly}

WINSTON ROTHSCHILD: You won! {hands his book to Dalton}

Red's Sage Advice
RED GREEN: You know, after you get married, there are things you need to learn that nobody ever talks about. They're not in any manual, and neither your parents nor your teachers are ever gonna mention 'em. So I guess it's my job. Okay, here's the main one: to survive as a happily-married man, you have to learn how to sneak food. {smiles and nods} You gotta pretend that when you're getting out of bed in the middle of the night, it's because you heard a clunking sound coming from the basement, not because you heard a grumbling sound coming from your own stomach. You gotta be able to find the kitchen in the dark. You gotta be able to unplug the fridge so that when you open the door, the light doesn't come on. {makes a fast eating motion} You gotta eat the food real fast. And when your wife calls down to find out what you're doing, {pretends to stuff food in his mouth} you gotta be able to stuff it all into one cheek, so that you can answer her without the telltale sound of a mouthful of cold lasagna. Then when you're finished, you gotta be able to hide all the evidence and climb back into bed. And if she starts making advances toward you, don't give in to her. She's not feeling romantic, she's trying to frisk you for Twinkies! Remember, I'm pulling for you. We're all in this together.

Side Segment
''{The Possum Van is pulled over by a police car on a dirt road. Red drives the Possum Van with Dalton and Mike as his passengers.}''

RED GREEN: And...what's this about?

DALTON HUMPHREY: Well, were you speeding?

RED GREEN: Speeding? In the Possum Van, Dalton? Well, I left my wallet at home. I got no driver's license. Quick, Dalton, switch places with me!

DALTON HUMPHREY: Okay, all right, okay.

{Red and Dalton try to squeeze through to exchange seats, with Dalton now in the driver's seat.}

RED GREEN: All right, all right, all right, sorry, sorry, sorry. Okay, we're good, we're good. There we go. Yeah.

MIKE HAMAR: Is that a good idea? I think Dalton's been drinking.

DALTON HUMPHREY: No, I have not, Mike.

MIKE HAMAR: Really? He acts this way all the time?

RED GREEN: Yeah. {to Dalton} Just get your license out, Dalton.

DALTON HUMPHREY: No problem.

RED GREEN: The cop will be up here any second.

DALTON HUMPHREY: Yes.

RED GREEN: What's taking him so long anyway?

MIKE HAMAR: He's probably running the check on the license plates.

RED GREEN: No, I don't think so. {pulls out the Possum Van's license plate and shows it to Mike}

DALTON HUMPHREY: Hey, what's today's date?

RED GREEN: Uh, it's the 14th.

DALTON HUMPHREY: You know, I think my license has expired, unless it's still 1997.

RED GREEN: No, that was years ago, Dalton.

MIKE HAMAR: Although your wardrobe implies 1962.

RED GREEN: Well, what do we do now, guys?

MIKE HAMAR: Hey, I got a license, let me drive!

RED GREEN: All right.

''{Mike, Red and Dalton all squeeze through and utter words of pain to exchange seats again. This time, Mike takes the driver's seat.}''

RED GREEN: Okay, we're fine, we're fine.

MIKE HAMAR: It'll be smooth sailing from here on. Just let me do the talking, okay?

RED GREEN: Let me see your license, Mike.

MIKE HAMAR: Yeah, sure. {hands license to Red}

RED GREEN: "Haisuz Rodriguez?"

MIKE HAMAR: It was my maiden name.

DALTON HUMPHREY: {calls on cell phone} Oh, hello, police? I would like to report a robbery in progress at the main intersection in Port Asbestos. Uh, huh, my name? Um... {Red shows Mike's license to Dalton} Haisuz Rodriguez.

{Dalton puts the phone back as the police car heads off.}
